    It's intrusive, vague and unenforcable.  How much AI do I have to use
    before I have to disclose?  If I lie, what are the penalties?  Who is
    going to enforce it?  Do they know they've signed up to do that?


I agree with the points John makes here. More broadly, it's your
burden to make the case for this requirement, not the other way around.

My case is that I think readers want to know this. Of course I could be wrong,
and that's why it needs testing on more than the people here.

Maybe the RSWG chairs could step in...
